    Happy birthday Terry O

    . Happy belated birthday Terry! I was passing through your neighborhood Thursday and thought I would drop this cake off in person. But it was 03:00 and snowing so I pressed on eastward.

    If CNN wants to make this a First Amendment issue, maybe it will get to the Supreme Court.:D

    So it went from "doctored" to "distorted". Most viewers will only remember what they heard and read first. :(

    Chevy Express Spartan

    Definitely go with the 6.0. Was this a FedEx Custom Critical van or FedEx Ground? Big difference between highway miles and city delivery miles. How did you come by the 2000 lbs. load capacity, did you weigh it?

    Load canceled first thing this morning. I got $135 detention time and $50 for the dry run.

    Arrived at shipper and was told there was no freight, no production order, no nothing. Reported this plus a contact name and phone number of the shipper to dispatch. Sat for 1½ hours before getting released and $135 detention pay. Will return in the morning. It amazes me how a consignee...

    It's unfortunate that the majority of Americans will never see this video and believe what they are spoon fed.

    Higher mileage Promaster

    I agree, unless it is prone to breakdowns resulting in service failures.

    UPS strike ...?

    There must not be any old Overnite drivers left or they forgot what living through a 3 year strike is like. I would guess that UPS has deeper pockets, greater power and more stubbornness than Union Pacific had back then. UP was probably looking to sell off Overnite anyway. Maybe with the...

    The Fake News Depot

    Not exactly the way NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt presented the incident. While not fake news it is another example of signature, gluten free, non-GMO, artisan crafted news. They didn't show Acosta's rude, disrespectful and disobedient outburst. Only President Trump's smack down. Start...

    Sylectus

    It appears Sylectus has some strict requirements for membership. If one shared the monthly fee with a current Sylectus member, would not that person also be "sharing" the member's DOT number, authority, insurance etc?

    Questions about pallet pullers

    Not necessarily. Weight distribution varies with different van makes and models. The ProMaster is front wheel drive and a very light rearend. My last two long wheelbase Chevys had a V-8 sitting over the front axle, generally if I loaded two pallets the lighter pallet went in first. Lots of...

    Questions about pallet pullers

    The rear axle on my Transit is almost 6' forward from the back doors. I give my carrier 120" of cargo length and 2400 lbs.weight.

    I dug up the old thread. It was I that posted the line about the Irish that offended some. You posted the link to the scene from the movie and probably offended others.
